HANOI (Vietnam News/Asia News Network): Vinh's speciality oranges have helped to put Nghệ An Province on the map as one of Vietnam’s biggest orange producers, becoming well known both domestically and internationally.

In the subsidised period before the 1980s, the oranges were mainly exported to other socialist countries, including the Soviet Union, where they were loved by many people.
